Continue with a second color, then a third and finally the fourth color (or as many colors as you wish)

Apply each color until the item has a splattered coverage to your preference (refer to photo for idea).

While still slightly damp (not shiney), lift the edge of the doily and peel it off.

When completely dry, use soft fan brush to apply two coats of clear glaze drying thoroughly between coats. You may also choose to dip you item in dipping glaze

NOTE: If applying to greenware, DO NOT APPLY GLAZE fire to cone 04- Then apply 2 coats of clear glaze and fire to cone 06.
If applying to bisque, apply 2 coats of Duncanâ€™s clear glaze and fire to cone 06.

OPTION: If you use a doily similar to the one shown, you can either leave as is or place a decal in the center and fire to decal setting OR you can decoupage a picture onto the item. To decopage, you will need clear or white decal paper. Size the area you want to place the picture and using a photo program, size your picture and then print it. You will need Decoupage by Royal. Seal the picture with super gloss spray sealer and let sit for a couple of hours. Cut the picture to shape and then using the decoupage glue, apply to the back and place the picture on the item. Then seal it with more glue and let sit for a few hrs to dry. You can then use it on the wall, or as a trivet, candy dish, etc.
